I Am Three are an acoustic duo from Manchester; Band members Hughes (acoustic guitar/vocals) and Irving (double bass/harmonica/vocals) opposing interests create a genre defying mix of identifiable styles such as grunge, alt-folk, blues & hip-hop.
“You see a lot of cold play, James blunt and jack Johnson rip offs on the acoustic circuit, we’d like to think we are as far cry from that as possible, upbeat soulful , whilst remaining true to our roots acoustic sound” - Hughes
I Am Three have handful of solid tunes, including "I Try” rapped over a waltz, “Burning me”, and Monkey Phonics” which feature on their first EP. But its their live performances which are earning the group a reputation. The duo stretch the rhythmic boundary of the bluesy “Worth it" and "Nostalgia" to slow and wistful songs such as "Strange Addiction" and "Pissing in the wind”
Following their recent tour of Europe “The Truckers Piss Tour 08,” which consisted of low-key unplugged performances along side packed out concerts in the Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland & Italy. they are now super charged and ready to assault the UK music scene.
I Am Three deliver a serviceable groove, Their self titled debut EP is the first of many, culled from two recent studio sessions the eight track CD features both well gigged material and new tunes. All recorded live with no overdubs the CD has been described by reviewers as "edgy and original."
For fans who enjoy I Am Three live this CD captures their sound perfectly as no studio trickery or overdubs have been employed. Those looking for something different should be aware that this is it. From start to finish the songs are packed with intangible lyrics which will challenge listeners.
"this release is not just some tracks shoved on a CD for no reason, it captures two musicians at the beginning of a supersonic and spiritual journey…."
I Am Three's first CD release is available now exclusively from this site. For a limited time, fans will be sent a free Live ‘Bootleg’ EP recorded in Netherlands, Italy and Switzerland with their order. |
